weekend report . . .

was a quiet weekend overall but definitely productive. i made it through the first week at the new job and seem to be getting a handle on things so far. i know there's more to learn and i'm getting more thrown at me daily!

on friday after work, mac and i headed home to make dinner and watch a movie. i ended up falling asleep on the couch after a scrumptuous dinner of peanut chicken soup made by my lovely lady. mac had to work on saturday so i took some time to get some scheduling done for lacrosse. i think i'm almost done with the jv schedule and hope to get that out on wed. phew ... so ready for that to be done. we had plans for a date on saturday night and went to nostrana for dinner then over to crush for a cocktail. we had been debating a stop at gaycation over at holocene but the line was ridiculous so we skipped it in lieu of heading home to watch more of season 3 of weeds. i love that show and mac had never seen it so we got seasons 1 and 2 from netflix and got her all caught up. i think they must have changed writers this season because it's even funnier than before!

we had a lazy sunday morning and i decided i was going to try my hand at making gluten-free biscuits for breakfast. they turned out ok and i think i'll tweak the recipe next time to see if they'll rise more . . . although i think i might have had a hand in that since i opened the oven while they were baking. who knew you weren't supposed to do that? we were just getting motivated to leave the house when the hot water heater decided to start draining itself. after a visit from the plumber, the issue was resolved (just a valve needing to be replaced & not the whole water heater - phew!). we headed out to do some shopping at pier 1 and return some counter samples at home depot.

it was an l word night so we headed back to the house to get some food prepped before the girls came over. we watched 2 episodes and are finally caught back up. we decided that watching every week seemed like too much so we opted to host every other week and just watch 2 episodes back-to-back. seems to be working out and the crew is fun so we enjoy it.

now it's monday and i'm at the new job (blogging as i eat my lunch). am getting a new office mate today. she seems cool (as does everyone i work with so far) so we'll see how it all goes.

so today i'm grateful for . . . a nice quiet weekend that felt productive but still fun and a wonderful woman to share it with
